Scuba Schools International (SSI), founded in 1970, set out with a bold vision: to make diving accessible and safe for everyone. Over five decades later, SSI has grown into the world’s largest professional, business-based training agency, boasting over 3,500 Training Centers and more than 100,000 SSI Professionals spread across 150+ countries.

From beginners dipping their toes into the world of diving to seasoned professionals aiming to become Instructor Trainers, SSI offers a comprehensive range of training programs. With their digital and printed resources accessible worldwide, SSI opens the underwater world to adventurers from every corner of the globe.

SSI’s commitment to excellence is reflected in its status as a founding member of the RSTC (Recreational Scuba Training Council) and its internationally recognized ISO (International Organization for Standardization) certification. These accolades underscore their active role in setting the gold standard for industry safety and training.

Diving isn’t just about exploring; it’s about learning essential safety rules and understanding how they translate from land to water. With SSI, you’ll master these concepts through at-home study, interactive review sessions, and hands-on training led by experienced SSI Professionals. Their “Comfort through Repetition” philosophy ensures you not only learn the skills but also develop confidence and competence underwater.

Diving frequently is the key to unlocking your full potential. SSI’s formula, Training + Experience = Comfort, highlights the importance of practice and real-world application. The more you dive, the more you’ll fall in love with the sport—and the more confident and capable you’ll become.

An SSI certification is your passport to explore the underwater world, recognized and trusted wherever you choose to dive. With SSI, you’re not just learning to dive; you’re embarking on a lifetime of underwater adventures.
